I go crazy like Siege & totally miss the sarcasm of every post.

Except when I'm at work. Takes too long to load the reply pages.

100% natural.  The first thing to come to mind is what I post.

Interesting poll.  I guess I'm kind of schizo in that, if a topic greatly interests me, I tend to discuss it seriously to semi-seriously.  If it doesn't interest me but I feel compelled to post anyway, I tend to post drivel consistent with my persona (i.e. a modern day Pantagurel).

Good lord, what kind of a connection are you on, man? I'm using my BlackBerry's EDGE connection right now and not having a problem with speed. :blink:

It's not the server. Every website does that, there's an hangout when the traffic switches from Waterloo network to the Montreal network. I have no idea why.

Quebec has determined that the Internet is counterrevolutionary.  Also, it's availible in English, and is thus illegal in Quebec.  Before 1977, Montreal was just as important as Toronto.  Now, Montreal lags behind Vancouver and Calgary.

Actually, It's Ontario's fault. We use to have our own outbound connection was much better.

I usually reserve judgment on a news article or issue, so I don't post often. My natural reaction then is to not have a reaction.  :bowler:
The thing that most interests me on Languish is reading everyone else's reactions.

I don't give my real opinion on most things. I launch a one liner usually based on the poster (Josq and his alcoholism, Cal and biscuits, etc.).

Or I pull a move quote out of my ass.

Don't really have a "shtick," but I do tend to say things more for the humor value than because they're my actual opinions.

Sometimes I'm serious, sometimes I'm clearly not.  It really depends on my boredom level and mood.

Frankly, I'm not smart enough to invent a personality for myself and stick with it.

Except for the purposes of annoying Slargos.  ;)
